Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Bernadette integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into her work, helping people notice difficult thoughts and emotions while focusing on personal values and committed actions that lead to a more meaningful life. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, stress, avoidance patterns, and when a client wants to clarify what matters most to them.

Attachment-Based Therapy is used to explore how early relationship patterns influence current connections, communication, and emotional responses. This approach supports people working through relationship difficulties, attachment issues, and family conflict by identifying patterns and building healthier ways of relating.

Client-Centered Therapy offers an empathic, non-directive space where the client s experiences and goals lead the process. It is especially useful for people who need time to process grief, build self-esteem, or recover a stronger sense of self.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Bernadette works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors sessions to the individual and adjusts techniques as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Bernadette can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for busy schedules and for people who live some distance from in-person services. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to access support when it fits into daily life.
